Willett birdies final hole to win in Dubai

Danny Willett rolled in a 15-foot birdie putt on the final green to keep a pair of hard-charging challengers at bay and capture the Omega Dubai Desert Classic.

The birdie finished off a 3-under 69 and left him one shot clear of both Andy Sullivan and Rafael Cabrera-Bello. It marks Willett's fourth on the European Tour since June 2012 and could move the Englishman as high as No. 12 when the newest world rankings are published.

Willett began the final round with a one-shot lead, and he grew it to a three-shot advantage at one point during the final round.
